Tara is the tallest female in her family and her brother, Josh, is already 6ft 5in at 16. However, Tara credits her mother, Elaine, who is 5ft 11in for making her feel positive and confident about her height as she struggled with her own height when she was at school and didn‚Äôt truly embrace it until later in life, when she saw Tara growing taller. Incredible pictures show Tara standing proudly amongst her friends and wearing heeled boots to make herself even taller.
